The Adélie penguin is one of four penguin species in Antarctica. But as cute as they are, they're not known for their gentility.

"Gentoo penguins are more mellow and curious about people," Dyan deNapoli, penguin expert, TED speaker and author of "The Great Penguin Rescue," told The Dodo. "They will walk up to you. But Adélie penguins don't behave that way. They are a little more aloof."

Adélie penguins are one of the few penguin species to use rocks when building their nest.

"They will collect a lot of rocks to elevate the egg because, when snow starts to melt, if the egg is right on the ground it will drown," deNapoli said. "So they'll build a nest out of rocks to elevate the egg off the surface."

"It's a lot less energy and effort to steal a rock than to go find one," deNapoli said. "They'll steal a rock from a neighbor's nest so they don't have to go hunting further away like down to the shoreline."

And with these two penguins (see video below), they will just keep repeating the pattern. Find the rock. Place the rock. Steal the rock. Over and over.

"That penguin is somewhat clever not having to work as hard," deNapoli said, referring to the video below. "He's pretty clever because he's taking a shortcut. He's just going to pinch rocks from the neighbor's nest."
